As the Saints passed the halfway mark of training camp, Director of Player Personnel Rick Mueller gave a thumbnail assessment of each of the teamÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s picks.

(1) Johnathan Sullivan has been good. HeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s shown signs that we saw on film He definitely has the quickness and explosiveness and he just needs to be able to improve his consistency and heÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s done that in practice.

(2) Jon Stinchcomb ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ we have him doing a lot of things. HeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s played right tackle, left tackle and heÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s even played guard. Things are settling in for him.

(3) Cie Grant ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ incomplete. He hasnÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢t worked enough due to a nagging hamstring injury.

(4) Montrae Holland has been impressive. HeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s really been the most impressive of all of the picks so far. HeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s played both guard positions, done a fine job and picked up the offense.

(5) Melvin Williams is a kid coming off of a knee injury and heÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s only been working for two to three days. HeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s doing a nice job. You see some of the things we saw in film when heÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s healthy.

(6) Kareem Kelly has been really good. HeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s got a lot of speed and a lot of talent. HeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s very quick. HeÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s had some injuries early. He missed some time, but the last four-five days heÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s shown progress.

(7) Talman Gardner has got to be a little more consistent than he has been, but he certainly has the talent and ability.
